The atmosphere of the new year has long passed, and in the blink of an eye, spring has arrived. The weather is warming up, and green buds have emerged on the trees. The whole world is full of vitality, as if returning to the season of blooming flowers, giving people a refreshing feeling.

During this time, Qizhou would send letters to Iris every day to report on the recent situation of the Ruined Land barbarians.

Iris looked at the letters on the table, a cold smile appeared on her lips as she said coldly, "Hmph, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Spread the order, gather the Demon Army, prepare for battle!" Iris said indifferently.

"Yes!" A high-ranking demon nodded and took the command.

After giving the orders, Iris went to Baiying's room and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Baiying's voice came from inside the room.

Iris pushed open the door and walked in, seeing Baiying playing with a strange plant. A puzzled expression appeared on her face as she asked, "What is this?"

Baiying lifted her head and looked at Iris, saying calmly, "Reply to Mother, this is called the Rainbow Flower. It has strong healing effects and can repair scars to their best condition."

Iris touched Baiying's little head and praised, "Impressive, you even know about these things."

Upon hearing this, Baiying immediately raised her head proudly and said, "Of course!"

"Very well, my little Bai is the best!" Iris praised a few more times, then took out a sandalwood box with a white tiger pattern carved on it from her storage space. It looked quite majestic.

Curiously, Baiying took it and looked at it for a while, asking, "What is this?"

"There's a Beast Pill inside the box. It can enhance your strength. Your sister Baixi advanced once because she took this." Iris smiled and said.

"Oh~ I see! Thank you, Mother!" Baiying's sweet smile bloomed, revealing adorable dimples.

"No need to thank me, my dear. This is meant for you. If you don't want to advance for now, then hide the Beast Pill well. Don't let Baixi find out, or she will definitely try to take it from you." Iris reminded.

"I understand." Baiying nodded obediently.

"Well, go on, go cultivate." Iris patted Baiying's shoulder.

"Mother, I have a question to ask you." Baiying looked at Iris and asked earnestly.

"Ask away."

"Mother, what kind of beast am I exactly? I have looked through the 'Encyclopedia of Beasts', and there are many recorded beasts in there. However, none of them match my characteristics." Baiying looked into Iris's eyes, eager to know the answer.

Upon hearing Baiying's words, Iris was first surprised, then showed a gentle expression on her face as she touched her little cheek. "You have horns growing on your head, a tail behind you, and wings on your back. What do you think you resemble?"

Baiying touched the small horn on her head and tilted her head, saying, "I don't know."

"You are a dragon, a true dragon," Iris looked at Baiying and said slowly.

"I'm a dragon?" Baiying looked at Iris with a surprised expression, her small mouth forming an 'o' shape, unable to believe it.

"Of course, you are my daughter," Iris nodded with a smile.

"Is Big Sister also a dragon?" Baiying asked curiously.

"Baixi needs to go through several advancements to have a chance to become a true dragon, and your dragon forms are completely different," Iris patiently explained, "Mother has something to attend to and will be away for a while, so practice well."

"I understand, Mother, have a safe journey!" Baiying waved her small hand obediently, bidding farewell to Iris.

"Alright, I'm off!" Iris nodded and walked out of the room, disappearing.

...

Meanwhile, the demonic legion gathered outside the city, waiting for the orders from the Demon Emperor.

Iris went to the dressing room and put on the Silver Wing Light Armor. With a solemn and murderous expression on her face, her eyes deep and filled with endless killing intent.

"My Lady, the demonic legion has assembled outside the city!" Baixi, in black armor, kneeled before Iris and saluted.

"Baixi, you suddenly became so serious, it's making me uncomfortable," Iris teased.

"We're going to war, aren't we? I can't embarrass my Lady in front of all the demonic soldiers!" Baiying blinked playfully.

"Tsk!" Iris raised her slender arm and flicked Baiying's forehead, causing her to wince, "Last time, you were rolling around the battlefield like a stubborn snake, shouting about the Shoawang Empire Empress not paying child laborers. Have you forgotten?"

"But I am a snake, what's wrong with being stubborn?" Fortunately, Baixi was wearing a helmet, otherwise that flick on the head would have hurt a lot.

Iris walked out of the room, followed closely by Baixi. Both of them moved with great speed and in the blink of an eye, they arrived above the demonic legion.

"March!"

As Iris gave the order, the soldiers of the demonic legion spread their massive demon wings and flew towards the sky.

Yar watched the Demon Emperor and the demonic legion disappear into the distance and muttered to himself, "I will protect this land for you, Demon Emperor, and ensure that no one oppresses your subjects!"

...

In the casino, the deceitful demon Ahri sat with her legs crossed, her face gloomy, looking like the sky before a storm.

She looked at the information provided by her informant, a mysterious expression appearing on her face. "Since Your Majesty wants to start a war, let me help you!"

After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the dressing room.

Jin'er and Yin'er, created by Ahri, were already waiting inside the dressing room. The two of them bowed respectfully as they watched Ahri enter, saying in unison, "Greetings, Mistress."

"Armor me," Ahri said without even looking at the two maids, directly giving her command.

"Yes, Mistress," Jin'er and Yin'er removed Ahri's ultra-short kimono, and then dressed her in a white bodysuit.

Then, Yin'er brought out the mistress's armored dress, assisting Ahri in putting it on and fastening the belt.

Jin'er knelt at Ahri's feet and removed her wooden clogs, replacing them with battle boots.

After getting dressed, Ahri nodded in satisfaction and looked at herself in the mirror. Her once provocative face was now filled with a solemn and murderous aura, exuding a heroic and resolute air.

Ahri's armored dress was a bright red armor embellished with dark patterns, and three strands of hair escaped from her helmet, framing her cheeks with a hint of mockery.

"The operation of the casino depends on the two of you!" Ah Li patted the shoulders of the two attendants and left the changing room.

"Yes, master!" The two maids bowed respectfully, watching Ah Li leave.

Beezelbub, dressed in gray armor and carrying dual swords, stood under an ancient tree outside the city, waiting for Ah Li to arrive.

Moments later, Ah Li appeared in Beezelbub's view.

"The security demon is early!" Ah Li looked at Beezelbub and said in a playful voice.

"Shut up, you dead fox. I don't want to hear such an unpleasant voice." Beezelbub sneered and said.

"You are my employee, so show some respect to your superior!" Ah Li pursed his lips and said, "Remember to refer to me as boss, not dead fox. Otherwise, I will deduct your salary!"

"You..." Beezelbub gritted his teeth and said.

"What? Do you have a problem?" Ah Li crossed his arms and provocatively looked at Beezelbub, saying, "Remember, you have helped Seiya..."

Before Ah Li could finish speaking, Beezelbub immediately interrupted him. He lowered his head and appeared apologetic, saying, "I was wrong, Boss. Please don't deduct my salary. I will work hard."

"Well, I can teach a good youngster like you!" Ah Li nodded in satisfaction.

Upon hearing Ah Li's words, Beezelbub raised his head, glanced at Ah Li, and silently thought, "You are the one who can be taught, your whole family can be taught, hmph!"

Immediately, the two of them rushed towards the entrance of Ruined Land.

...

At the same time, Qizhou and Shizhi brought Jinghe towards the entrance of Ruined Land continent, mainly to let Jinghe experience the cruelty of war.

"Jinghe, as the successor of the Flame Demon, you must quickly adapt to the brutality of battle, understand?" Shizhi solemnly reminded Jinghe.

"I understand," Jinghe nodded.

Although there was no extra expression on Jinghe's face, a hint of fear could be seen in his eyes. After all, there was still a trace of innocence in his heart.

Qizhou looked at Jinghe's innocent expression and sighed. He patted his head and said, "Jinghe, forget the fear in your heart. You just need to understand that if Divinity and Demon's Continent is defeated, all the races on this continent will become slaves, subject to slaughter."

"I understand," Jinghe nodded heavily. "I will never disgrace the name of the Flame Demon!" There was determination in Jinghe's eyes.

Qizhou nodded with satisfaction, then led Jinghe towards the entrance of Ruined Land continent.
